Beyond Civilized Borders

By Rick Charlebois

A trapper recounts his experiences on an isolated trap line where he spent a few years building cabins and exploring unknown country. The nearest settlement was a hundred and thirty eight air miles away. Survival itself was often a challenge in this harsh environment, where the only neighbors wore feathers or fur. He describes encounters with the wildlife, reflections on the lifestyle, and what it was like to live away from society.This trap line is situated near the headwaters of the Hess River, bordering the Northwest Territories in northern Canada. It was an adventure fraught with danger and excitement to keep the adrenalin flowing. The pristine country and breathtaking mountain scenery joined forces with the solitary environment to instill a blissful sense of contentment.
